City lights, golden chains
We're all caught in these games
Poison sweet on our tongues
The lies we've always sung
They say take it off, be free
But what's beneath, do we dare see?
The abyss calls, it's got our name
Without these masks, are we the same?
Masks on! Masks on
It's how we survive
Fake it! Fake it
To stay alive
In this masquerade
We've all got a part to play
Masks on
Keep the truth away
Higher climb, tighter grip
Success is just a script
Actors all, on this stage
Trapped in roles, page by page
City lights, golden chains
We're all caught in these games
Poison sweet on our tongues
The lies we've always sung
They say take it off, be free
But what's beneath, do we dare see?
They say take it off, be free
But what's beneath, do we dare see?
Masks on! Masks on
It's how we survive
Fake it! Fake it
To stay alive
In this masquerade
We've all got a part to play
Masks on
Keep the truth away
Higher climb, tighter grip
Success is just a script
Actors all, on this stage
Trapped in roles, page by page
Masks on! Masks on
It's all we know
Fake it! Fake it
To stay alive
In this masquerade
We're slowly decaying
Masks on
Keep the truth away
So wear your mask, play your part
In this game that breaks your heart
What's left to see, in the end?
A hollow shell, pretend, pretend
So wear your mask, play your part
In this game that breaks your heart
What's left to see, in the end?
A hollow shell, pretend, pretend
What's left to see, in the end?
A hollow shell, pretend, pretend
What's left to see, in the end?
A hollow shell, pretend, pretend
